[RachelLeVega]

Hey everyone! We will be set to begin the Race in less than 2 hours. Toasting and hoping for a good episode tonight.

[RachelLeVega]

30 minutes until we get to meddle in our teams' business tonight!

[RachelLeVega]

5 minutes

[RachelLeVega]

And we are on the big screen!!

Previously on TAR, 11 teams flew into Guatape, Colombia and military pilot Juan treasured a return to his home country. Vinny's strategy at the RB paid off for a 2nd place slide-in. Sean confronted his greatest fear. Cesar's culinary skills helped Ricky and him win the leg. Meanwhile, twins Anthony & Bailey's indecisiveness costed them the race.

We see shots of Medellin and Kishori & Karishma soaring above the sky. I guess they're first today. Phil reminds they are starting in three departure groups. Amber & Vinny and Angie & Danny are shown flying the skies. Derek is scareed and Shelisa asks someone to put em back up there? Leticia is scared of gliding.

[RachelLeVega]

Leticia wants her daughters to look up to her as a superhero. Sean is screwed. Michelle's mantra is "keep going, don't quit". They know how to stay the course. Sean conquers his fears once more.

[Bookworm]

If paragliding is before teams even check out of the Pit Stop, is it possible that this was an "Expedia experience" meant for Leg 3 but cancelled due to the rainy weather?

[RachelLeVega]

Sean says there was no moment where he was fearful because the beauty of the Colombian landscape overwhelmed him. Yvonne & Mel and Juan & Shane shots. Sunny & Bizzy and Ricky & Cesar right behind. Teams make a landing. So what is going on?

Regular intro and commercials. Well this is a first. No one has even begun the leg yet.

yeah i thought so too. mind you it wasnt sunny either apparently when they finally paraglided.

They really don't want teams to eat, sleep and mingle together due to COVID-19 protocols so they have to provide distractions.

[RachelLeVega]

We return to Group 1 (finally) leaving consisting of Ricky & Cesar and Amber & Vinny.. ROUTE INFO: Comuna 13 en Reversadero #1 near the base of the escalator.

Amber & Vinny jet set to 1st while Ricky & Cesar are behind. The boyfriends feel intimidated by them, but their goal is to stay in the first group no matter what. Vinny wants to compete and knock em down to 2nd.

Derek & Shelisa, Juan & Shane, Yvonne & Mel, and Sunny & Bizzy leave in group 2. Juan says Medellin changed so much since he grew up them. He talks about potentially coincidentally running into his aunt in the city. Derek & Shelisa aren't changing their strategy. Yvonne & Melissa thinks Shelisa is going on a Sunday afternoon drive. The girlfriends are hoping to move up spots.

Group 3 depart quickly.

[RachelLeVega]

Danny is speaking in Spanish. Angie- "Pass" to the taxi driver. Karishma reveals she is a licensed skydiver and she wants to enjoy her life. Sunny & Bizzy feel they aren't performing as well as they can. They discuss raising their babies back home. Michelle & Sean are confident.

Amber & Vinny arrive in traffic, right in front of Ricky & Cesar. They ask for directions to the escalators. "Three blocks".  Amber asks Vinny to slow down. They split off between a fork in the road. They arrive at the base, but can't see the cluebox.

[RachelLeVega]

Juan & Shane see the marked flags to the base. Ricky & Cesar run up to the clue box and Vinny sees them. DETOUR: Dance Vibes or Wall Scribe.

In Dance Vibes, teams must get in sync with breakdancers for 30 seconds to earn the next clue. In Wall Scribe, teams must identify a rebus puzzle on murals across the city and recite it to local artist Chota 13 to receive the next clue.

"You cannot walk or run on the escalators." oooh, potential penalty for someone?

[RachelLeVega]

Ricky & Cesar say there is supposed to be 7 of these puzzles, but there are 8.

Juan & Shane arrive at the Detour clue in 3rd. They choose the breakdancers. Juan says he's never been to this cultural epicenter before. Yvonne & Mel and Derek & Shelisa run to the base. Shelisa identifies a museum, not the base.

Yvonne & Me arrive at the clue in 4th then Yellow in 5th. They choose the dancers.

[RachelLeVega]

Ricky & Cesar and Amber & Vinny are both still searching while Rod & Leticia start running to the base with Angie & Danny right behind *walking specifically for her.

Juan & Shane arrive at the breakdance learning area. "It's like line dancing." - Shane. Juan says to break the sequence down into pieces.

[RachelLeVega]

Ricky & Cesar find the race flags on the murals. They start to decode the message rather quickly. "The world is smaller/bigger than you." Amber & Vinny following right behind. "Earth or world?" - Amber.

"The world is bigger than you... dream... imagine..." - Ricky

Meanwhile, Rod & Leti arrive at the clue in 6th. Rod is doing the dance as a pro. Leticia's strong suit is not dance.

Kishori & Karishma run up the stairs and Angie & Danny are pointing out the base, but don't see it.

[RachelLeVega]

Danny explains the cluebox was super difficult to spot. He wants to make up time, but are genuinely confused where to go.

Commercials.

[Bookworm]

The rebus puzzle is literally a five-minute Detour and the graffiti images are neither far apart nor out of order to test teams' memory/creativity. Cool concept, careless execution.

[elthemagnifico]

the rebus puzzle detour is nice but it could spread and be random more than they did there, but i assume they couldnt have permission to have gravity walls out of that range so they had to do in order

[RachelLeVega]

We come back to Point Nowhere as Angie & Danny are still wondering where they are going. Ricky & Cesar go for a first attempt at the phrase.  "The world is bigger than your evil thoughts." - Cesar

Amber says "the world is smaller than you."

Derek & Shelisa arrive at the breakdancing studio. They follow Juan & Shane's pattern. Yvonne & Melissa also arrive, but Yvonne is immediately thrown off by the rhythm.

[RachelLeVega]

Amber says "the world is smaller than you think" and is CORRECT! She thinks the muralist is giving her a spray can to graffiti the wall. She gets the clue.

ROUTE INFO: Plaza Botero.

Ricky & Cesar trial and error their way into 2nd place.

Rod & Leticia are joining the breakdance team. Leticia says this is so hard.

[RachelLeVega]

Derek says Shelisa is the dancer at home, but argue on the spot about not being able to teach him if she doesn't understand the sequence as well.

Amber & Vinny and Ricky & Cesar rushing down the stairs. Amber is worn out by Vinny's persistence of pushing her to run faster. Kishori & Karishma arrives at the DT clue in 7th followed by Angie & Danny in 8th. The cousins rush to the dance while Danny is obsessed with puzzles.

Michelle & Sean are outrun by Sunny & Bizzy to the first clue box.

[RachelLeVega]

"You want a dance challenge! We got a freaking dance challenge!"- Kishori

Ricky & Cesar keep repeating "permiso".

Amber is distraught about Vinny asking for more and more from her and Amber is breaking down feeling like a burden. She'd rather be last if that's the case and wants him to leave her alone for a moment.

Commercials.

[RachelLeVega]

We return to Amber trying to handle the pressure. Vinny says they both are type A-OCD. Amber wants to bring down the tempo a little bit and are talking this out.

Sunny & Bizzy are doing the rebus while Michelle & Sean are dancing.

"Feeling like it's 1992!" - Sean. They are at an advantage with their experience.

"I eat rebus puzzles for breakfast." - Danny. He is shouting "SMALLER THAN YOU! BIGGER THAN YOU!".

Juan & Shane go for their first try and mess up.

[RachelLeVega]

Danny & Angie try their rebus analysis and move up to 3rd! Damn!


Sunny & Bizzy arrive at the murals. "Double H hockey sticks around the world and now they're doing yoga." They see an ohm sign.
